Atlas lyrics : "Held Back"
Corrupted hands forcing inane judgement
On people who just seek answers to questions
Which will remain unrequited
The structure of society has divided
And the core values have been stripped away
Equality is forgotten
This fire will rage though my soul
Escape this choke-hold
(I will carry this torch until it chars through my bones)
An absence of substance has misled you
A testament eroded of all evidence
Freedom is the key to this entrapment
Don't let corrupted hands hold you back
They're holding you back
Don't let the walls close in on you
You have a mind and freedom
To use your voice in this modern world
Define what's right in a moral code
Overlook a scripted verse
The foundation of humanity should be centred on certainty
And I believe democracy is worth fighting for
Equality is worth so much more than any law you pass
I refuse to believe in a parting of knowledge
An illusion of fundamental discretion.
